The Guardia Civil organised crime squad and Algaida-based criminal police launched another operation against drugs today (Wednesday). Some 200 officers, who included members of the security reserve group from the mainland, took part in Operation Luidar, which started at around 6.30am, involved twenty-nine raids on properties and lasted for most of the morning.

Three Palma districts - La Soledad, Aragón and Verge de Lluc - were targeted but so also was a property by the Palacio de Congresos. There was further police activity in Felanitx, Inca, Marratxi and Selva, and by the afternoon there had been some 30 arrests. Significant quantities of cocaine, heroine and marijuana were seized.
